Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject Classic Philology - Latin philology - Literature, grade: Sehr Gut (A), Indiana University (Department for Classical Studies), 0 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: Comparing both translations in a whole piece I have to confess that although Goold's translation is much more precise and almost literally, for interpretation and discussion on Propertius the translation of Warden seems better to me. Maybe it is also because Warden kept the meters from Propertius in his translation and because of the start with a direct question, so that a reader might feel appealed or addressed. Warden's translation seems to me more immediate in time and in his direction to the reader, when Goold's translation remains me more at a letter or a report, written some time after the even.
